Substantial Grade II-listed cottage on a large plot with North Downs views, chain free.
Grade II-listed 16th-century cottage with extensive period features
The Cottage is a rare Grade II-listed 16th-century home in Goose Green, Gomshall, offering substantial, character-filled accommodation across multiple floors. Original features such as exposed beams, an inglenook fireplace and panelled fireplaces combine with versatile reception rooms to create a warm family environment. The house is freehold and offered chain free, making a prompt move possible.
Set on a large plot with sweeping views over the North Downs, the garden is a standout asset for outdoor living and privacy. Practical outbuildings include a double-length garage and a spacious workshop that could serve as a home office or storage. The property’s size and room count offer scope for flexible living, including two loft rooms that provide additional useable space.
Buyers should note material constraints: the Grade II listing will restrict alterations and require listed-building consent for many changes, so renovation scope and costs may be limited. Broadband speeds are reported slow; modern working-from-home needs may require alternative connectivity solutions. Council Tax band G means running costs are relatively high.
This home will suit buyers who prioritise historic character, generous indoor and outdoor space, and outstanding rural views, and who are comfortable managing listed-building responsibilities. The village location, low crime, excellent mobile signal and nearby schools make it well suited to families seeking long-term rural living rather than a turnkey modern refit.
